I am looking at the PHB II right now and I really have to work to feel even slightly distasteful towards the page mentioned by the OP. Respectfully, I think the OP needs to learn to use less hyperbole. It's in no way a terrible book, and the new races are intended to be exotic. Firstly, OP...

You're correct, I was typing incorrectly. I was thinking I would have to get a total of 21, -10 to intimidate them. Still, the kobolds get a lot for being my enemy.

This really made intimidate suck for me. You basically have to freakin' /own/ at intimidate to even scare off Kobolds! My poor Paladin felt rather disgraced as he charged forward, clad in fullplate, shield and sword on high, crying forth the damnation the Kobolds were fated to should they stand...

I'm glad you think it's useful, but it's not incredibly powerful. The trick really only works once, especially if you're playing with my DM. At level three we got to fight our first dragon and I ended up doing :):):):)all while the Ranger ran away and we all tried to slow the dragon down while...

It's a power that's originally /designed/ to be used multiple times. I can see no way that this will affect the game balance and since it is not actually against the rules, the only reason /not/ to allow the (twice per encounter) multiple use of a power gained through two different venues which...

I'm sorry, but I think that's rather taken out of context. That's referring to powers you get from leveling up, while powers the Paladin gets in this case are from feats and racial abilities. This is probably another example of this edition's "Few rules, many exceptions" bit. See, it's really...

Interesting idea, but why should I use Dilettante for that instead of the feat?

Actually, it works rather nice when combined with Martyr's Blessing .You get to make the big bad try to attack a friend, take a -2, and 3+cha damage, and if they miss, horray, and if they hit, you get hit instead. They still take the damage. ;) You just have to be creative with how you use...

I'd assume so. I don't see why not. On the subject of Warlock multiclassing, I'm doing it as an experiment. However, if I could find a way to actually make the Warlock Prestige classes not be gimped, I'd totally be on that.

I've been working on a character, a Paladin(Warlock) that neglects Strength in favor of Charisma. He plays fine, I'm just wondering if anyone has suggestions for how to do this. Here are his stats: The tactics of this character are mainly for him to help the fighter defend the rest of the...

Ah, thanks. I was getting really frustrated, thinking there was an error in my PHB or something.

Where the hell are you people getting this at-will "Illusionary Foes" for Wizards? I'm looking through my PHB, the DND Insider Database, everything, and I have no idea what you're talking about.

Nevermind, I agree with Gloombunny. It says you need to be using a weapon from the dagger, crossbow, or sling weapon group. It does not say "implement". If it were to say simply using a dagger, crossbow, or sling, then that'd be cool. But no, it's saying a weapon, therefore the dagger needs to...

If I were DM, I'd just rule that he has to throw the dagger when he does it, but otherwise it certainly /sounds/ fine. Fluff-wise, it'd just be like the dagger's point having the Eldritch Blast riding on it, and thus the Eldritch Blast's energy becoming the blade that strikes, not the dagger...

Wait, what? Why is this even a problem? Seriously. Why the hell wouldn't this theoretical fighter use Reaping Strike instead? That's a sure dinky damage at-will. Cleave still requires you to hit the first target. Since minions still have appreciable ACs, why wouldn't the fighter just Reaping...

And pretty much Raistlin's character hook too.

This is definitely incorrect. Scorching Burst is Area BURST 1. A burst starts in an origin square and extends in all directions to a specified number of squares from the origin square. It extends one square in all directions from the origin square in the case of Scorching Burst. Otherwise it'd...

Is it just me or is the Pact Initiate feat for multiclassing as warlock extremely useless? Here're my problems: Pact Initiate gives you the ability to pursue a warlock paragon path based on the pact. All the warlock paragon paths require either A: the pact boon to use the abilities (as in the...

The only times you can replace lower level powers with higher level powers are at the times stated on the chart on pg 29 of the Player's Handbook. Those are 13th, 15th, 17th, 19th, 23rd, 25th, 27th, and 29th level. Otherwise, you can only use retraining to train some power of the same level or...
